Mod Manager Auto Updates
hey,
I have my dedicated server running on a Windows server. I control it via 2 services and a job in the task scheduler.
At system startup (or at 6am) the task triggers the first service which shuts down the Satis server and checks if there is an update from the game. If yes, the update is installed. Afterwards the service triggers the 2nd service which then starts the server and keeps it running.
Question: Can I do something similar for mods with the Mod Manager? For example, can I write a batch file that checks whether there are updates for mods and then updates them? This would allow me to completely automate the server.

thx!
Just some quick feedback: I could not find a way to automatically search for and install updates, e.g., by packing this command into a batch script. Such a parameter does not seem to exist, nor does one that can be "abused" for this purpose. Either that, or I am stupid.
Briefly looking through here on mobile I don't see one implemented yet either
